Sokha Beach is located just west of Serendipity Beach . This beach is the most popular among local beach goers. It provides many facilities and wide white sandy beach, especially on the high tide season.Sokha Beach wins our vote for the nicest beach in Sihanoukville, with its radiant stretch of fine white sand and shallow waters ideal for floating.The beach is backed by the huge, sprawling Sokha Beach Resort, the first -- though no doubt, not the last -- truly flash hotel to plunk down in Sihanoukville.Although it's a shame to see one resort dominate the beach, at least they look after it well and they don't restrict access. If you're staying at Malibu this is the perfect beach.If nothing else, at least try to visit Sokha on a daytrip.Other picture of Sokha Beach.Video of Sokha BeachWatch more YouTube videos on AOL Video[...]
